Probiotics Help Prevent Recurrent Diverticulitis
An imbalance of the gut microbiome, also known as dysbiosis, can contribute to diverticulitis.
Probiotics can help restore balance to the gut microbiome and prevent diverticulitis.
Probiotics can also help reduce inflammation in the gut and prevent diverticulitis.
The use of probiotics in preventing diverticulitis is supported by the American Gastroenterological Association.
Probiotics are generally safe and well-tolerated, with few side effects.
Probiotics can be taken in the form of supplements or found in fermented foods such as yogurt and kefir.
The best probiotic strains for preventing diverticulitis are still being researched.
A combination of probiotics and fiber may be more effective than either alone in preventing diverticulitis.
Probiotics can also help prevent other gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
The gut-brain axis plays a role in the development of diverticulitis, and probiotics can help modulate this axis.
